Climatology

Climatology, 4th Edition, provides an introduction to Earth's dynamic climate system. The textbook introduces essential atmospheric science principles while exploring the environmental factors that shape regional and global climatic diversity.

Designed to support beginning students while challenging more advanced readers, the text pairs conceptual discussion with quantitative treatment where needed, without requiring the use of calculus.

The 2018 edition includes a revised, full-color art program. This visual update improves the clarity and gradation of climographs, maps, and photographs across different climate categories.
